Re: [tor-relays] obfs4 bridge stuck at 0% bootstrap

When I was running a bridge on my Raspberry Pi the only success I had was when 
I compiled from source. Don’t be overwhelmed, the instructions are very easy to 
follow.

[tor-relays] New relay in USA: bridge or middle relay?

2019-10-08 Thread Isaac Grover, Aileron I.T.
Good morning from Wisconsin,

After reading about how middle relays in the USA go largely underutilized, and 
having quietly run my own middle relay for several years, would it be more 
beneficial to the network to launch several new bridges instead of more middle 
relays?

Make your day great,

You can use "deb.torproject.org" in Raspbian:

Re: [tor-relays] obfs4 bridge stuck at 0% bootstrap

2019-10-08 Thread Volker Mink

Could be, i am not so deep into this whole linux-magic.
Its raspian stretch with kernel 4.19.66 on a PI2B, which is -as far as i know- from august 2019.

 

apt install tor offers me tor version 2.9.6.xx, enabling the experimental from debian-stack offers 0.3.4.x

 

Any idea how to get a newer version?

My next guess is that you have an old-style raspbian, with an old
arm-based cpu architecture that is not compatible with modern Debian, but
you have installed the modern Debian tor deb. If that's what's happening,
the binary won't run because it's for a different arch.

Now your quest has simplified to "get Tor running at all, by figuring
out what operating system you're actually running, and finding an
up-to-date Tor package that is intended for that operating system." :)

[tor-relays] Questions about Fallbacks

2019-10-08 Thread Michael Gerstacker
Hi,

when i setted up my relays i choosed 443 as the ORPort.
My thought behind it was that 443 is most likely not blocked and less
likely observed because the ISP could expect to anyway only see encrypted
data so a Tor connection will more likely slip through it.

I let the DirPort on 9030 because i read that clients anyway only use the
ORPort and i thought if a authority will connect to me it makes no
difference because none of my ports is blocked.

Now some of my relays are Fallbacks.

Would it be a benefit for the network if i change the DirPort to 80 or is
the DirPort still not used by clients?

Is it necessary to opt-out the relay as a fallback if it was shut down by
the provider and already is long gone from metrics?
